An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Six-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 81" x 81") (Learn More) The Silencers, the 1966 Phil Karlson spy espionage action comedy spoof ("Matt Helm shoots the works!"; "The Slaygirls will slay you!"; "They've got what it takes to 'get' Matt Helm"; "Based on novels by Donald Hamilton") starring Dean Martin ("as Matt Helm"), Stella Stevens, Daliah Lavi, Victor Buono, Arthur O'Connell, Robert Webber, James Gregory, Roger C. Carmel, Beverly Adams ("as Lovey Kravezit"), Cyd Charisse, and "featuring The Slaygirls" Mary Mangler, Margie Nelson, Marilyn Tindall, Jan Watson, Barbara Burgess, and Margaret Teele. Note that this is the first film to feature a post-credits scene! Also, note that this movie was produced by Irving Allen. Allen and Cubby Broccoli had produced a long string of movies together, but then they split apart when Broccoli proposed that they produce the James Bond series of movies, which Allen did not want to produce, because he did not think that they were even good enough for television! A few years later, Allen tried to make up for his massive blunder by producing this series of Matt Helm movies starring Dean Martin, but the only way he could get Martin to star in this first one was to make him a partner, which meant that Martin made more money from The Silencers in 1966 than Sean Connery made on Thunderball the previous year, and Connery was not happy about that at all!

Important Added Info: Is it just me, or was the artist for this six-sheet going a little overboard in his phallic imagery? This six-sheet was printed in 4 sections. Condition: good to very good. There are scattered water stains in the bottom credits area. There are tears and areas of surface paper loss across the top of the bottom half of the poster (it runs across the bottom of the image) and there is a long diagonal tear in the white background above and to the right of the title, and there is tape on the back of that long tear. There are many tears and tiny areas of paper loss in the foldlines that were on the outside when the poster was fully folded. This poster with a classic image has clear defects, but it is basically "all there", and after linenbacking and proper restoration, the poster will look great! Learn More about condition grades
